Guest guest Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 Gosh will they transmit that brainwave frequency with their ads, in the background? They've already found the religious experience brain section, to go with the NASA Blue Beam holographic Second Coming and voice of God. Science is getting unbelievably evil. KD Weber <wvadreamin Friday, 26 December 2003 5:32 Fw: In an Age When Capitalists Are Terrorists as BIG as Any from Abroad SEEKING THE BRAIN'S " BUY BUTTON " Backed by funding from major corporations, Researchers at Emory University are undergoing intensive studies of the human brain looking for what has been coined the " buy button " . This new pursuit of consumer control, known as neuromarketing, involves Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) on live subjects to find the specific part of the brain that is activated when a consumer is successfully wooed by an advertisement into purchasing a product. Using the data from this research, marketers hope to be able to create ads that follow the exact neurological pathways that ultimately activate the " buy button " in consumers. According to a letter to the Emory University from a coalition of groups opposed to this research, " If Emory University takes its own mission seriously, it should challenge this abuse of medical knowledge and technology to manipulate people for commercial purposes.
